A collection of correspondence consisting of seven TLSs from the former president, all one page, and all dating from the 1950s, with one held in a simple frame, all written to Mrs. W. E. Manchester. The letters, though brief, contain some interesting comments, including, in a letter dated January 25, 1953, “The sun surely shines brighter since November 4th,” referring to the election of Eisenhower. Also included are a decent-size collection of pamphlets and booklets reprinting speeches of Hoover; letters from Hoover’s assistants and minor political figures; form responses; and newspaper clippings. Also included are a number of copies of Manchester’s letters to Hoover and others. In overall fine condition.
